Nigel Pitt

Yes im currently in Oman, working in the E&P of oil and gas ie exploration and production for Petroleum Development Oman, PDO. Im a safety engineer. I work for seventy days straight and get three weeks off every seventy days ie every two and a half months. Ive been here since 13 May 2011. Money is tax free so i dont feed the likes of JuJu and his cronies. Oman is an amazing country and the Omanis who are Abhadi's ie they are not Shia or Suni Muslims are even more amazing. Muscat is the cleanest city in the world i think, never seen anything like it. Our people have much to learn from this culture.I will write a long letter for you to share with all by email for me and give them my best regards. I have such wonderful memories of school and many ol photos. If you do a slide show during the get together let me know. I live in Cape Town now. I have an amazing girlfriend there. So im off on the 2nd Feb departing from Muscat via Dubai to Capetown for three weeks and have to return to Oman on the 26th Feb. My next rotation period is the 11th May. Sadly i wont be able to come down as my back to back who supports me when im gone is away that time. So basically in a year i work 280 days and get 85 days off. Its a tough life in the desert my friend. Not many westerners can cope with this lifestyle. Its the money that drives us. Have to make a living you know. My son Julian, whom you spoke to is a mechanical engineer with Eskom at the moment. My eldest son works for Barclays capital in London. Anyway Patrick ill drop a letter, its the best i can do unfortunately.
